Miers' windfall
Edited on Sat Oct-22-05 10:15 PM by madaboutharry
Josh Marshall has a post up at TPM about Miers nabbing 10 times the market value on some land being taken for an off ramp. This kind of crap really pisses me off. Miers is nothing more than a corrupt crony. Others who are supposedly in public service are nothing more than inside traders. I am sure the majority of Congress is in on the game.

1. Now that's what you call eminent domain, BushCo style
10 times market value.

You have to be a "special" person to get that kind of settlement.
